ConfiForms - Write page version statically in a field

Good morning all,

I have a Field Definition 'Autopage' in my (Confi)Form to derive the page of the form and thereby get page title and page version. To get the page version, I use a field with 'myfield.version' in the TableView.

Now to my problem: The page version in the table view grows when the page is edited. However, I would like to record the page version statically when the registration control is activated. I assume I have to combine this with '[entry.myfield]' but I can't get it to work. '[entry.myfield.version] does not work for example.

What am I doing wrong? Can you please help me? :)

Hi @Max M_ 

I suggest you set up a rule that updates some internal hidden field with a page version when the form is submitted (record is created)

That would be easy to configure by adding this type of ConfiForms IFTTT - https://wiki.vertuna.com/spaces/CONFIFORMS/pages/9864128/Configuring+ConfiForms+IFTTT+actions+and+rules#ConfiguringConfiFormsIFTTTactionsandrules-Create(Update)ConfiFormsEntry to react onCreated event and something like (in parameters)

entryId=[entry.id]&yourhiddenversionfield=[entry.myfield.version]

Also, you might set the option in the macro to not to trigger a corresponding event (onModified in this case, as this is an update)

Alex

Thanks, it works. 🙂

I had forgotten about ConfiForms IFTTT, I rarely use it. 🙈

No worries. There is a lot you can do with ConfiForms IFTTTs - the possibilities are limitless ;)
